I was lucky enough to put my tag on my first muzzleloader bull in Colorado. We saw him on an adjacent property Saturday evening with his girlfriends and was fortunate enough to get on him Monday evening at last light about 1.5 miles away where we had permission to hunt. Snuck within 107 yards and sent one his way with about 10 minutes of shooting light left. The Hornady 350 grainer in front of 110 grains of BH209 did the trick.

Mighty fine there Nontypical. Congratulations.

What was the reaction at the shot. Did he go down quickly or run a ways?

Great Job!


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

It was center of his shoulder and he wasn't sure what happened. He just knew something wasn't right...... luckily the cows didn't spook until he fell over or I'm sure he would have tried to keep up with them. He made a couple small circles over a span of about 20 seconds (seemed like 2 hours) and fell over. It amazes me how tough these dudes are. He soaked up that bullet better than I deal with a gnat! His hanging weight (field dressed, no head, no hide and half his legs) was 505 lbs. The luckiest part about the whole thing is he tipped over in a meadow that we could drive to. It took 5 of us to load him.
